chapter 14: i will change you!

tokyo mall

veniz held arika's hand as they went about the

mall in tokyo. veniz decided that arika skip one rehearsal practice and

ing

her to tokyo mall in tokyo. tokyo mall is one of the largest malls in japan.

arika's eyes widened as she saw all of the clothe stores at the mall. from

guess, penshoppe, calvin klein, lee etc. etc.

"anou veniz-san, i don't have the money for

these clothes" arika mumbled to veniz. veniz flashed a credit card and

exclaimed, "don't worry, it's on me" arika's eyes widened upon hearing

it. niki laughed at arika's expression and exclaimed, "veniz is like that

arika, she is very gallant"

"hey we're on a mission here, it's the

change-arika mission remember? we start at the appearance first" veniz

replied winking at arika. arika smiled and nod her head. she agreed to have a

total make-over, not only the way she looks but also the way she acts.

sakuragi hanamichi then handed veniz his credit

card saying, "just in case" veniz took it and said, "arigato

nii-chan!" mitsui hisashi smirked and said, "man sakuragi, ever since

you and veniz went back to germany for the hearing of your father's will, you

returned back rich as a king!"

"that's what you call good luck

mitchy!" sakuragi exclaimed. kaede huffed and muttered,

"odahou..." sakuragi flared up and exclaimed, "i heard that

kitsune!"

arika giggled. at first she was feeling edgy

that she surrounded by a rival school of kainan.... shohoku. but the players of

shohoku turned out to be really nice people. veniz's

other hanamichi is really

funny, he may be a

ag but he's a nice guy, very loving

other to veniz and

rather protective too.

veniz's boy friend rukawa kaede don't talk too

much, he'll speak to you if you speak to him. he and sakuragi bickers a lot but

it can be seen that the two are good friends. it also can be seen that kaede

loves veniz very much, he always gives veniz that look of love and that smile

that people rarely sees.

niki haruka, the famous ballerina of japan and

veniz's best friend is bubbly, cheerful and really nice. she is very fashionable

as well. her boyfriend hisashi mitsui who is now studying in tokyo university,

former mvp of shohoku and still mvp for the tokyo basketball team. mitsui is one

hell of a gentleman and he's funny too.

"so you're fujisawa arika eh? the singing

sensation of kainan. according to sources, you equal veniz in singing"

mitsui replied looking at arika. arika shook her head and said, "please,

veniz-san is greater than i am" veniz smiled and said, "i don't really

mind arika-chan, i saw you sing and i can say you are really good, i should

really watch out for you, you know"

"these people are so nice, i wish i had

gone to shohoku rather than in kainan but then... if i haven't gone to kainan i

wont meet kiyota... but if i went to shohoku, i won't feel harsh treatments... i

won't have a bleeding heart right now" arika thought as veniz and

haruka busied themselves choosing clothes that would fit her.

veniz faced her a sleeveless top and a jean

skirt and said, "try this on!" niki then showed her a pair of stringed

sandals and exclaimed, "then pair them with these!"

after 1 hour of clothes shopping and shoe

shopping

arika looked at what they have bought. she had 2

bags from guess, 2 bags from penshoppe, 2 bags from lee, 3 bags from calvin

klein and 2 bags from the shoe department. "now, let's shop some

accessories that would match these clothes" niki replied.

"accessories?" arika asked. veniz took

arika's glasses off saying, "yes, now first loose that glasses of

yours" arika exclaimed, "veniz-san, i'm half blind without my

glasses" veniz then placed a small box on her hands and replied,

"that's what contacts are made off"

arika looked at the small box. indeed it was a

box of contact lenses. "i am to wear contact lenses?" she asked.

"of course, you got beautiful eyes arika-chan, you should flaunt them"

veniz replied winking at arika. niki then studied her

aided hair and replied,

"your hair is long yet you always

aid them, looks like you need to have a
